World Travel: An Irreverent Guide

Autor Anthony Bourdain, Laurie Woolever Ilustrat de Wesley Allsbrook
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 20 iun 2024
'Terrific . His love for his subjects - both the food and the cook - sings' Telegraph
'Christ, could Bourdain weave words ... The guy wrote like a poet' Guardian

A celebration of the life and legacy of one of the most important food writers of all time - the inimitable Anthony Bourdain


Anthony Bourdain saw more of the world than nearly anyone. His travels took him from his hometown of New York to a tribal longhouse in Borneo, from cosmopolitan Buenos Aires, Paris, and Shanghai to the stunning desert solitude of Oman's Empty Quarter - and many places beyond.

In World Travel, a life of experience is collected into an entertaining, practical, fun and frank travel guide that gives readers an introduction to some of his favorite places - in his own words. Featuring essential advice on how to get there, what to eat, where to stay and, in some cases, what to avoid. Additionally, each chapter includes illustrations by Wesley Allsbrook.

Supplementing Bourdain's words are a handful of essays by friends, colleagues, and family that tell even deeper stories about a place, including sardonic accounts of traveling with Bourdain by his brother, Chris; a guide to Chicago's best cheap eats by legendary music producer Steve Albini, and more.

Recenzii

Witty and fascinating . a guide book that can't help but inspire - whether that's to set off on your own free-wheeling adventure across the globe or just to spend a weekend streaming Bourdain's favourite movies is left to the reader's discretion
Witty and anarchic
The late, great chef Anthony Bourdain travelled the world extensively in search of the best places to eat and, in this book, finished by his long-time assistant, Laurie Woolever, we can travel the world with him and discover his favourite dishes and restaurants, from cumin ribs in Shanghai to hot dogs in his native New Jersey. At a time when all we can do is armchair travel, this is a much-needed escape. His writing is funny, honest and evocative, and makes for an entertaining read you can dip in and out of, a country at a time, or devour all in one go
An exhilarating whirlwind tour.... Anyone who loved and misses Bourdain will want this book

The late television host had dreams of creating a guidebook for all his favorite cities across the world, and his longtime assistant and collaborator took the notes from their singular brainstorming session and turned that dream into a reality
A collection of remembrances mixed in with a global travel guide, this collection of city-by-city tips and restaurant suggestions uses Anthony Bourdain's own words alongside Laurie Woolever's, making this a one-of-a-kind book honoring a one-of-a-kind soul
